The problem is that because of this damned anti-seizure medication I can't remember where I put the paperwork.
The only reason I registered as handicapped is because I don't have any balance from the medication and couldn't possibly pass a drunk test.
You have no balance, and ride a bicycle? I am aware that bicycles are self balancing once up to speed, but I think it still requires the rider to have some natural balance.
Your slow speed balance on a bike is almost entirely with vision. I can't ride with my hands off of the bars anymore but can ride normally otherwise.
I don't have any balance not so much because I don't have balance but because the medication makes the front half of both feet numb and I can't tell if I'm countering a fall with pressure via feet.
I absolutely cannot stand and hold my head back. I cannot stand on one leg. In the dark I have to put a hand on the wall to remain upright. A cop will let you fall down and crack your skull and I've had enough concussions thank you.
